Other effects / acceptance of results:
The results from all eyes used in the study met the quality control standards. The negative control and positive control results were within the historical control data range in the experiment. Thus, the experiment was considered to be valid.

Any other information on results incl. tables

No significant corneal swelling (mean ≥-5%) was observed during the four-hour observation period on test item treated eyes. Slight cornea opacity change (severity 1) was observed on three eyes. Slight fluorescein retention change (severity 0.5 on two eyes and severity 1 on one eye) was noted on all three eyes.Test item was stuck on all cornea surfaces after the post-treatment rinse. The cornea surfaces were cleared at 30 minutes after the post-treatment rinse.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on this in vitro eye irritation assay in isolated chicken eyes with Chondroitin Sulfate Avian, the test item is not classified.
